THE CAGED COLLECTOR. Contradiction of th Aasertlon that Von Hollan Voluntarily Surrendered XTImwtlC Intertctlng Interview with the Ex-Collector I Tnrouf we iron ears or ma Dungeon Cell. He Kuibrtt Signal Ijtaaflitw Understand Some Plata Qaeetioma. In the way of new developmenta, there was lit- tie to excite comment In retard to the Ton HoUen matter yesterday. There is, howerer, a singular and Inexplicable contradiction relative to the meana by which the jM slugger of Bren-tone's malicious hopes got Into the Jail.

According to the report In yesterday's ts.ua of this paper, btX "-wat facte and the stete-jnents of Ton Holies himself, it waa a personal surrender of liberty. But there is a contrary assertion about ths County Buildings. There the tory is that Deputy Bark arrested Ton Holies in ths house of his friend Jim MoGrath, and that be was allowed to walk alone in advance Of the unlumlnous star and appear to give him-self up. The authorities at toe Jail assert this to be a tact Nevertheless, George Insists that tt a voluntary act which placed him In the custody of Cook County. A reporter from this paper called upon Ton Hollen, and found him eon Terming with cOrath and another When this tripartite confab earn to a close the reporter stepped into the vacancy, and began on Von HoUen while yet his Xacuities were warmed into activity.

It was unnecessary to aide how he felt, for he presented every appearance of rUUXU UAB A CAUKD MAW, As a matter of tact, he wears a weir-developed mustache, grown to its full proportion, and as luxuriant as could be expected of one confined te the province of a small lip. Be has also a clean shirt, and sports a regulation necktie, and all es-- aertions to the contrary are gross and libelous fabrications, warranted to mislead. George plunged his hands down into the ample depths of hat empty pockets, adjusted hie eye to an aperture In the wire screen lag which acted aa verdone to the negative and positive elements, and said, first rate, thankee," to an easily implied remark from the reporter. ''What has been done in regard te your affaire to-dayf- "Nothing whatever. There is not a newthtng." "Can't row throw any lighten the subject, in yonr present humorons frame of mind? lbs reporter knew his mind waa humorously inclined from the Jaunty manner in which Ueorre wore his hat "So, I aunt know of anything toasy.

OUR AMERICAN POETS. A Leetsnro est Bryant, Loogfeflow, said Whit-tier, by the Mow.

Dr. B. Kobta. A select audience listened last evening, in tbe tne Union rark Congregational Church, to a lecture by the Key. Dr.

F. A. Noble, and to choice musical selections by Louis Falk. The body of the auditorium wae quite comfortably fliled, and the entertainment, ta both it literary and musical feat urea, was very greatly enjoyed. Ko better selection could have been made to fill both parte of the programme.

Mr. Falk entered the organ loft, and, from the moment of opening, waa attentively listened to. He waa received with applause, and this expression of apprecia-Uon followed him when tbe last note waa heard. Dr. Noble, after some of Falk's best music, delivered the lecture ef the evening, on Our American Poets," A great French writer claimed for the people of this land the possession of poetic Ideas, although he waant very sure about It He never dreamed of this country ss taking Its place with those of Homer and Dante and Virgil and Goethe and Shakespeare and Milton.

That was fifty rears ago, woen the great French author wrote fearfully about the future poetry of this land of tbe West Tbe lecturer thought tt was something remarkable that, in so short a time, we were able to speak ef poete American poeta-4n whose works all had an interest, and whose honors had besom, a part of the honors of this people. He could not consider all the poete which America had brought forth, but woold take three aa the exponents of the several school, which were well known in thia and other lands. The three selected were Bryant, Longfellow, and Whittier. The first one was lik. the ivy that clings round the grand old towers aad cathedrals, for it is with ths past he generally finds his theme.

Longfellow ana Whittier have in many respects common ground, and often sing of the same themes; sometimes toey are crying out against human wroors. aad sometimes they take the asms fine view of home and home life; but Longfellow touches more finely the home-life and the children and the "children's hour." Whittier sings, whispaie of freedom everywhere, and of the simple teles of the land. The lecturer gave some very interesting facts ss to ths life aad labors of the three poete, bringing out many very Interesting points in the songs ana singing or loose woo A careful aad acholarlv analvaia was given of the poems of these three American poets, and numerous quotations were recited to illustrate the outlines of their character suggested. The lecture wae very smooth, was delivered to pleasant, clear, round voice, and gave excellent interpretations of the poems of tbe authors who were considered. Here and there were given very attractive descriptions, aad the differences of the singing three were brought out in a way at onoe truthful and suggestive, and no doubt those who heard the lecture will become better acquainted with the authors of whom America Baa so great res spa to feci proud.

There were a number ef discussions bet ween counsel for the prosecution aad defense as to the admlsibtlity of eertaia testimony. This consumed most of tbe forenoon. The prosecution endeavored to in- trodaoe evidence of tbe shooting oa the streetcar, when Prince Albert attempted the life of his brother James Jones, the deceased, about three weeks before Jamas was killed; thia waa to prove that Prince Albert entertained malice toward tbe dead brother.

To this ths defense objected, oa the ground that, aa the indictment was tor manslaughter, such testimony was not admissible. At o'clock Judge Tulev decided that the evidence relating to tbe shooting, three weeks before James Jones was killed, waa not ad-misaable, but the evidence as to the defendant making threats to kill was admitted. The jury retired while the evidence relating te the dying declaration of Jamea Joaee was being given bv Theodore Jones, a brother of the deceased and defendant, aad John G. Jones, another brother. The ease will ge oa to-day, beginning at S-'SO OUOCB.
